Cipralex

Does anyone have any experience with this drug? I've been prescribed it for my anxiety while it does work for that, it makes me feel rather gloomy. Is this something that will ease up with prolonged use?

I've had to take a break from it this past month because I was depressed from another source but I want to get back on it.

 

Well it increases your serotonin levels so it shouldn't make you feel gloomy it should actually increase your mood.

 

It may be a side effect. This could prove dangerous with excessive use. I'd lay off until you can get a doctors opinion on the matter.

 

That's a very good question have you went for a check up and told a doctor about what's happening?

 

I haven't had any experience with it. I know this is the obvious but you should probably speak to your doctor/psychiatrist about what you're experiencing and see if this is normal. Taking medical advice from a gaming forum is a bit sketchy

Is this an improvement when you're not feeling depressed?

On a side note CBD (from cannabis) is known to help with anxiety. There are high cbd strains that you could eat as a cookie, or even a cream I think that wouldn't get you high but might help with your symptoms. Might be worth looking into/speaking to your doctor about if that's something you have access to in your state.

Anyway, good luck Govind and I hope you start feeling better!
